A kitty cat is a proper addition to a sailing yacht as they will eliminate any mouse or rat that might come aboard from who knows where. Do you have a kitty?! I love cats, but don't have any pets right now. Yes, I rescued this feral kitten and now he's all grown up. He's still very timid around people and hides when strangers visit but he's a good hunter. He mostly hunts insects as that is about all that can get aboard. There was a mangrove snake he cornered one time in the lazarette just forward of the outboard motor, though. I had to grab it and toss it overboard but it swam to the dinghy and crawled up along the transom and got in so I rowed it over to the shore and put it off so it wouldn't keep coming back. Is that kind of snake poisonous? Yikes! My brother had a dog that went after two killer bees that got into the house. They chased my bro into the bathroom and he said he could hear them bumping against the door, which attracted the dog. Munch, munch, no more bees! I think if you left off the word conservative, you would have said it all. ![]() especially what goes on in a place like this. How about some reasoned approach to finance?? Hello? Well, aren't you sweet! But, you are right; one of these days people are going to have to WAKE UP and realize that money doesn't grow on trees. People who don't produce a damned thing are going to have to realize that they aren't worth a dime as far as payment for not producing a thing goes. This country is going to hell in a handbasket. Every high school student should have to read (and understand) Ayn Rand's, "Atlas Shrugged," before they are given a diploma. You seem so very sensible. If you haven't read "Atlas Shrugged" please do so as you are very much in the mold of Dagny Taggart. Yeah, I agree! The builders around here really took it hard when the economy went into the toilet. I know a bunch of them through work. They were scrambling for a while - still are I guess, and those guys actually made things. I don't much like our new gov. Brown... too lame-brain liberal, but he's talking some decent stuff about cutting some of these nonsense programs. I would have preferred Meg... tough as nails, but she got sandbagged by the volume of disinformation about the nanny. We'll see with Brown. snipped to end Not painful I hope! :-) Wilbur Hubbard |
